Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1443 - 1121: I Am Ready_2

Chapter 1443: Chapter 1121: I Am Ready_2

His words immediately revitalized the atmosphere in the Meeting Room. Smiles appeared on the faces of people like Rilinov and Korokolli, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Shao Yigu had initiated the discussion, representing a change in thinking among the core members of the Kreml Faction.

Gavriil followed suit, stating seriously, "If Mikhail himself is willing, it is indeed feasible. We must prioritize the overall situation. The General Election cannot continue to be interrupted, or it may trigger a series of unforeseen consequences and might even become an international joke."

The consecutive statements from these two almost settled the matter, unless the Father-in-law strongly opposed it and could provide a convincing reason to do so.

But would the Father-in-law do that?

To put it bluntly, if he insisted on going his own way and butted heads with so many in the Meeting Room, it would almost amount to courting universal opposition, with severe consequences!

When Medvedev saw everyone had expressed their stance, and even Shao Yigu and Gavriil had shown support, could it be that the Kreml had already made up its mind? Otherwise, Gavriil and Shao Yigu wouldn’t have spoken out like this...

Now that he hadn’t spoken yet, he became anxious.

He said in a slightly panicked manner, "If everyone agrees, then I have no objections. Mikhail is indeed very suitable!"

At this point, the Father-in-law had no choice but to speak, as he was the only one left who hadn’t expressed his stance.

......

The Father-in-law slowly put down his coffee cup and turned to look at Wang Ye, asking calmly, "What about your own thoughts?"

Wang Ye straightened his back, which had been slightly bent, took a deep breath, and said firmly:

"I am ready to face even greater challenges!"

Clearly, Wang Ye’s response caught the Father-in-law off guard. He blinked in surprise, momentarily losing his focus.

However, he quickly regained his composure, smiled and nodded, saying,

"If that’s the case, everyone supports you and you are prepared, how could I possibly oppose?

I have always believed that you are the most suitable candidate. It was just that you were always reluctant to run, so...

Haha, let’s not talk about the past. Since we have reached a unanimous decision, let’s settle it. The Duma can start its procedure now.

Dismissed!"

After announcing the dismissal, the Father-in-law turned to Wang Ye again, "Mikhail, stay behind for a moment, let’s talk further."

After saying this, he stood up first and walked out, with Wang Ye following him out of the Meeting Room.

The remaining people in the Meeting Room had different expressions. Some openly suggested going out for a meal together, while others hinted at a private conversation.

Of course, there were also those who ignored everyone and left immediately, including the Chief Justice...

......

The Father-in-law and Wang Ye walked through the long corridor, the guards standing on both sides saluting as they passed.

Silently, they arrived at the office, and the Father-in-law went straight to the sofa and sat down. Wang Ye also sat silently opposite him.

The Father-in-law had a serious expression, leaning forward slightly, his sharp gaze fixed directly on Wang Ye’s face, while Wang Ye was calm and did not avoid eye contact.

After a while, the Father-in-law’s expression relaxed, he leaned back, sinking into the soft sofa, looked up to the ceiling and said in a deep voice, "Are you really mentally prepared? You understand what it means to take this position!"

Wang Ye replied without hesitation:

"Of course, I understand. If the General Election hadn’t become such a mess, I would have rather remained as Duma Speaker than wade into these troubled waters.

But now everything is in disorder. If no one steps up to clean up this mess, our country will be finished!

I can say with certainty that from 2001 to 2021, these twenty years will bring about global changes not seen in a century!

Now is the most critical time window. If we can’t develop our Economic Development quickly and improve our overall national strength during these years, then the future...

Let’s just say the outcome will be very grim!"

This was the first time Wang Ye was so assertive about the world situation in front of the Father-in-law, and his tone moved the Father-in-law deeply.

He sat up straight and asked earnestly, "Is it really as serious as you say?"

Wang Ye nodded firmly, intensifying his tone:

"Perhaps it’s even more severe than I’ve described!

So, my stepping forward this time is not about fighting for power or profit, but to do something for this country.

"

After all...

"My name is Mikhail, and I am Russian too!"

His last words were meaningful and clearly had an implication.

My father-in-law seemed to have gotten the message, as his expression eased somewhat. He subconsciously repeated, "Yes, you are Mikhail, and you are Russian too..."

Hesitating a moment, he then asked, "If you are elected, do you have any plans for human resources arrangements? Who do you plan to appoint as the Duma Speaker and oh, the Prime Minister as well?"

Wang Ye immediately answered, "The majority of the departments will retain their current status. I might persuade Grezlov to serve another term as the Duma Speaker because given the current situation, he is the only one who can hold down the fort in the Duma.

As for the Prime Minister, I actually believe that you, father-in-law, would be the most suitable candidate."

My father-in-law was taken aback, just about to say something, but Wang Ye did not give him the chance, immediately adding with a smile, "But that would really be a disservice to you, so let’s have Medvedev do it. I think he has been doing a very competent job in the past two years.

And Rossiyana should continue as the Governor. Honestly, she still needs a few more years of tempering before she can take on a significant role."

In just a few words, Wang Ye had pretty much arranged all the core positions.

He had taken care of all sides, unlikely to cause any opposition from any faction.

Though the Hilarwick Group did not obtain the central position of the Kreml, they still held onto very important key positions such as in the Government and the Ministry of Defense.

Medvedev and Grezlov should also be content with Wang Ye’s arrangements.

Perhaps Rossiyana "suffered" a little, but being able to continue as the Moscow Governor was significant, and she probably couldn’t find any fault with it.

Besides, with Wang Ye assuming leadership in the Kreml, it would largely benefit Rossiyana as well.

After some thought, my father-in-law found no faults to pick out, and he sighed deeply, patting Wang Ye on the shoulder, advising him,

"Misha, your growth has indeed been astonishing. Think back to a few years ago when you first became a Congressman, you were still so inexperienced.

Now, after a few years, you can take on great responsibilities and turn the tide.

Remember what you’ve told me today!

You’ll take this position not for power or profit, but to do something for this country!

And remember, you are a Russian!"

By the end, his expression turned serious.

Wang Ye nodded firmly, "Don’t worry, I will!"

...

When Wang Ye stepped out of the office, his father-in-law personally saw him to the door.

Before they reached the stairs, Wang Ye saw Gavriil waiting at the corner, waving at him...

They went together to Gavriil’s office.

As soon as they entered, Gavriil closed the door behind him, asking eagerly in a hushed tone, "What’s the decision? Is everything settled?"

Wang Ye nodded slightly.

Gavriil let out a big sigh of relief, his face breaking into a bright smile, repeatedly saying,

"Good!

Very good!

I’ve always felt that position should be yours!

Why should Medvedev compete with you!

And Grezlov too, an old man who should be retired and enjoying life, still insisting on getting involved.

As for your wife, Rossiyana, her abilities still fall short compared to you, ahaha."

Wang Ye shook his head with a wry smile, not quite knowing how to respond.

It had to be said, Gavriil the old man had always been beyond reproach in his support for him.

Perhaps it was because he himself was seen as a ’wise discerning talen’,’ handpicked and cultivated by him, so seeing his own step-by-step progress, he felt honored as well...
